JAPAN CLOVER.

The editor of the St. Louis Journal
of Agriculture has lately made a trip
throughout the south for the purpose
of personally inspecting the qualities
of Japan clover. He found it univer-
sally esteemed, but no systematic meth
cd of either sowing. the seed or saving
the hay. The plant. grows wild III all
conceivable kinds of soils and is GER
tainly renosating the old, worn ont
cotton lands of the south. Cattle,
horses and hogs in the section where
this clover has sprung up Ono n
seems to know where it origiDated),
are fat and thrifty, which is something
unusual at this season of the year for
the southen country. The farmers with
whom be conversed consider it a God
send to that section. In many places
he saw it growing luxuriantly on per-
pendicular red clay banks, along the
public highways and in gullies and
washes. In the old, worn out cotton
fields it seems to thrive amazingly. He
found no one who has eve sown a seed
Of this plant and but N farmer who
has taken the pains to cut and cure the
hay and ave a few bushels of the seed.
| He secured a small quantity of the seed
and proposes to give a pint of it free to
every one who will send us 50 so for s
years subscription to the ST. Loui;
Weekly Journal Of Agriculture and In
t~cliieencer.
This seed offer, as all will observe, i:
absolutely free, and it costs th'
subscriber nothing whatever. w
hope many of our readers and new
subscribers will avail themselves Of tn,
proposition to experiment with TIN
new clover.

low example of Pennsylvania dem
ocratic governor in using the whole
power of the state through the courts
against such combinations and con-
sE,iracies. The pertinent question ask
ed in this connection is whether states
that have laws to punish workmen Tor
conspiring to raise their wages by acts
in restraint of trade and injurious to
the general welfare will permit rail-
road presidents and mine overs to dc
things that are more in restraint OF

simply a question whether there is to
he one law for the rich and another
for the poor, or plenty of law to help
the powerful few and no law to pro-
tect the helpless many"
The st. Louis Republican looks on
the gloomy side of it. 1t says:-"Henry

evidently had so much Progress that he
wants to try a little Poverty by way OF
a change, and he could not go about

can start a paper, but it requires a good
| deal more than a lot of misconceptions
about political economy to make it keep
started. Mr.. George will probably
change his mind about journalism af-
| fer he has dallied with 1t for a month
or two" Why, no. He has had a
good deal of free advertising of late,
and he ought to do better than that. Al
any rate we hope he will. Pregnant
as he is with big ideas it ought to take

The fine and lofty contempt expressed
